“Solitude sometimes is best society.” – Paradise Lost by John Milton

“If you put all the love of the mothers into one heart it still would not equal the love of the Heart of Mary for her children.” – Saint Louis de Montfort

“Behold the Heart which has so loved men that it has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify Its love … But what I feel most keenly is that it is hearts which are consecrated to Me, that treat Me thus. Therefore, I ask of you that the Friday after the Octave of Corpus Christi be set apart for a special Feast to honor My Heart, by communicating on that day, and making reparation to It by a solemn act, in order to make amends for the indignities which It has received during the time It has been exposed on the altars. I promise you that My Heart shall expand Itself to shed in abundance the influence of Its Divine Love upon those who shall thus honor It, and cause It to be honored.”  Jesus to St. Mary Margaret Alacoque

“We need never be ashamed of our tears.” – Great Expectations by Charles Dickens

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.”—Michelangelo
This is what the Holy Spirit is trying to do with each one of us…are you allowing him to chisel freely?
